Hello mister Holness
And Mrs P
I know you are the leaders of Jamaica
Come on and talk to me
How do you feel when you see the hopeless run the street?
Who do you pray for nightly for his needs
Tell me when you look in the ghetto
Are you proud?
How do you sleep when the rest of us rise
How do you feel when the mother have no hope to give her child
How do you work wid your head held high?
You cant even look me in my eyes
What do you know about hard work?
Doing four jobs and never get raise a pay

Working on the form until you old and grey
Let me tell you bout hard work
Try fi get back your house after bank tek it away
Let me tell you bout hard work

How do you sleep when the rest of us rise
How do you feel when the mother have no hope to give her child
How do you work wid your head held high?
You can’t even look me in my eyes
